The Biden administration is moving forward with a $680 million arms sales package to Israel, including joint direct attack munition kits and small-diameter bombs. This comes after a US-brokered ceasefire in Lebanon between Israel and Hezbollah. The package has been in the works for several months and was previewed to congressional committees in September. This follows a $20 billion sale of fighter jets and military equipment to Israel in August. Despite concerns about the human rights situation in Gaza, progressive US senators' resolutions to block the sale were rejected.
